A simulation study of the internal twisting torque in the fouetté turn
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the magnitude of the twisting torque for one revolution of a Fouetté turn. Simulations were performed using a simple model comprising the supporting leg and the remainder of the body. It is shown that when the dancer turns more than one revolution with a small twisting torque, the turn will be decelerated and will finally stop. A large twisting torque is required at the start of each turn in order to increase the angular momentum which will subsequently decrease during the turn due to friction.
